Final construction cleaning: Cleaning done properly after refurbishment and renovation work

If construction, refurbishment, or renovation work is carried out on your house, a lot of dirt is created. The residents can only move in.

But what exactly is meant by final building cleaning after a new building or renovation? What measures does it include and how is cleaning carried out correctly after refurbishment and renovation work?

In this article, you will learn everything about professional post-construction cleaning!

What is the difference between general cleaning and fine construction cleaning?

In final construction cleaning, we often make a distinction between general and fine construction cleaning.

Pre-construction cleaning: Pre-construction cleaning is carried out during the construction phase in order to remove coarse rubble or rubbish. This usually takes place when a construction site is handed over to the next craftsman. This not only makes their work easier but also makes possible construction defects visible.

During the rough cleaning, rubble and all residual materials (e.g. wood residues, stones, plaster, mortar, etc.) are removed from all rooms and, if necessary, also from the outside area.

Care should be taken to ensure that the existing rubble and rubbish are also disposed of professionally and in an environmentally friendly manner. In addition, packaging, films, and chemicals, for example, must also be sorted and properly disposed of.

Construction cleaning: The cleaning usually takes place after the building acceptance. It serves to bring the building into a ready-to-move-in and usable condition.

All large and small dirt that arose during construction is removed. Cleaning after refurbishment and cleaning after renovation work includes removing residues from adhesive tape and labels as well as removing dust from all surfaces.

The advantage of fine construction cleaning is that all surfaces are freed from the dirt created by the craftsmen, such as paint, varnish, mortar splashes, drilling dust, etc., and are thus free of dust, streaks, and traces of wiping, such as well as removing all protective films and labels.

How much does a building cleaning cost?

The construction cleaning is not comparable to classic building cleaning, because very individual and complex cleaning tasks can arise here.

The costs that arise for a building completion cleaning cannot be specified as a flat rate. Depending on the provider, they are calculated per hour or per square meter and can depend on:

• Circumstances
• Degree of pollution
• Time schedule
• Travel expenses
• Expenditure on technical equipment

Tip for owners: Let us make you a non-binding offer or a cost estimate for your desired building cleaning. This gives you a quick, concrete overview of the costs incurred.

Do the construction cleaning yourself?

A construction cleaning not only requires sufficient time but also the right cleaning agents and equipment as well as a certain amount of expertise in dealing with the various cleaning methods and care products used.

If these basic requirements are met, you can also carry out the cleaning yourself after a renovation. However, you should always carefully consider savings and benefits as well as possible additional costs.

Don’t forget – the initial care of floor coverings: Remember that the final cleaning of the building not only includes the removal of dirt, but that initial care of the floor coverings is also crucial.

You can only enjoy the floors in your building for a long time if they are cared for.

Floor coverings made of artificial stone and natural stone in particular, but also new parquet, require initial care before use.

Care or impregnation agents are applied to the floors using suitable methods, which are intended to protect them from mechanical stress, moisture and dirt in the future.

Why is special care required when cleaning the building?

Construction dirt can stick very stubbornly to surfaces. The right cleaning agents, methods, and materials are required to remove the dirt that occurs during the final cleaning of the building, such as labels, paint and varnish splashes, mortar and cement residues, joint sealing compound, and building dust.

If the wrong cleaning agents and methods are used, we leave behind irreparable damage to surfaces can quickly occur or the dirt in unsightly residues.

Important note for homeowners: When cleaning the building, care and caution is required to remove dirt from the new surfaces without scratching or otherwise damaging them. Rely on a professional cleaning company and check in advance whether they are also suitable for your specific cleaning project.

Why better hire a professional cleaning service for the final building cleaning?

During refurbishments and renovations, bricking, drilling, and filling, in short, the most diverse forms of soiling can occur.

However, these are often very stubborn and can only be removed with the appropriate cleaning methods.
